I’ve had a headache for five days straight. This morning I finished off the pouch of coffee and saw on the bag, in small print, “Decaf.” 🤦🏼‍♂️

If you ever wanted to get off coffee, now is the time - you just went through a withdrawal much easier than if you had an intention not to drink coffee

Keep going! I gave it up last year and have grown to love tea. You feel energized but without the anxiety or come down. Every now and then I’ll have a coffee, but don’t really feel like I need it.

I drink decaf every day. Its a happy mediun. There's still a significant amount of caffeine in there, so if decaf is all you drink, youll feel it. But youll be far less dependant on it, and will be able to function without it. No headaches or unintended naps.

My boyfriends birthday is coming up. He’s turning 28, but he’s new to the city we live in and doesn’t have many friends.

I used to do staffing. Involved cold calling And spamming clients and emails. People treated recruiters as middlemen, a noise and felt disrespectful.

But it’s not easy profession - to specialize and win in a niche.

I know it could be automated and give an experience to candidates and clients by making it ondemand, instant and specialization. I saw a Vision to turn this recruiting business into ondemand staffing companies like Airbnb - just publish talent and do the transaction.
